Asahi Station opened on 8 August 1983 as a petition station on the Japanese National Railways Kansai Main Line between the Asake Signal Station and Tomida, with its 73-million-yen construction cost borne entirely by the local community after sustained appeals dating to 1966. From 1 April 1987 the station passed to Central Japan Railway Company (JR Central) at JNR privatisation. TOICA IC-card service began on 25 November 2006, and station numbering was introduced in March 2018, the station being numbered CJ08. The station has two opposed side platforms, no station building, and is unstaffed; on 8 March 2026 automated ticket machines were installed, and from the same day all doors of one-man-operated trains could be used for boarding and alighting.

Because the original platform layout was designed around manual ticket collection by the conductor, the entrances on the up and down platforms are offset rather than aligned.
